Hello Chapi !
Celebrated to early - smartnewtab.com still opens occansionally in IE :-(
I ran a scan an hour ago with the newest versions of ZHPDiag and ZHPCleaner, both could only find the false positives which they also discovered the last days, logs are available if they are helpful for you.
Thank you again, Klaus

Hello :)
Can you share the adwcleaner logfile ? It can be found in c:/AdwCleaner/adwcleaner[CX] where X is a number.

Hope it helps.

Hi Klaus,

One question to MalwareBytes before installing it: I have MS Security Essentials installed, won't there be a problem defending one another (and making the PC nearly unuseable) when both are active ? I experienced t...
Hi :)
I do a cleanup of the installed software frequently, there should be not to much unknown.
Most of the programs you listed are installed since a while and known to me (some are quite famous like Corel or Paragon), only DocMgr is quite questionable - it isn't listed in the installed programs, and I can find it listed in the start menu.
